I bet people install it and then are like "okay, but I tweaked it up to use GNOME/Plasma/whatever"

going all-in on Linux is one thing, but going all-in on a specific window manager? with specific keybinds? idk, individual workflows are too specific to be prescribed like this imo.

I think a lot of it is just for the author's own fun, enjoyment, and amusement. Also, golang is probably their favorite hammer. It's not efficient for me to smoke a brisket myself or make furniture by woodworking, but I enjoy it. Not everything has to have any more purpose than that.

bingo. i'm not trying to claim that everyone should do this in go -- it's just a language that i like to use. by all means, use ruby, or PHP, or Elixir, or whatever else you like!

See my comment upthread; I'm very curious why PHP would not have worked for you.
j3s · a month ago
because i don't enjoy working with PHP

I like the idea, but I don't like that the result is not accessible. For example, there are no headlines, lists, or paragraphs—just a huge pre, or if you remove the 'thoughtbody' class from the p element, you can see how well a screen reader can read it.

I also have extensive experience with static sites, starting from using just Apache Directory Listing (Footer, Header, SSI), to writing my own in Perl, Ruby on Rails, Go, and TypeScript, using frameworks like Astro, Next, or Zola. Apart from the Apache setup and some Perl scripts, all of them had one thing in common: I used Markdown because it is easy to transform into HTML, which means it is accessible.

agreed, accessibility is something i'm hoping to fix with my wiki rewrite! that and phone formatting x_x

From one of these user's most recent posts here https://j3s.sh/thought/blogs-rot-wikis-wait.html:

  p.s. i'm working on a new wiki to replace my website with - something new, from the ground up.

  git.j3s.sh/abyss - stay tuned

I wonder if they'll still be using a similar approach for the new site.

j3s · a month ago
it's still in the works, but here's the plan:

- written in golang, one binary

- custom markup lang

- very short urls (https://j3s.sh/$pagename)

- pages are saved as text-files-written-to-disk with git autocommits (similar to mycorrhiza[0])

- "blocks" that process parts of pages differently - similar to edna[1]

- pages editable via web interface (rudimentary phone support)

- autolinks between pages

- simple picture upload interface (^V with a pic in clipboard will upload the pic + paste appropriate markup)

- single user system, intended as a personal knowledge base

this system will replace https://j3s.sh and https://abyss.j3s.sh eventually -- all old links will redirect to the new wiki. it's been quite an undertaking, but i think the end result will be worth it :3
